Rep Power: 137   | By default there isn't a policy you can set. I created a custom ADM which I charged around £20 and this covers you for your whole domain. I don't currently have it hosted on my website. This will allow you to set Google as the default search engine. It also works with IE7 too on XP/2003 only. |

Take a look at: Set Google as search provider in IE7. IE7 - add a set of search providers How to create custom .adm or .admx files to add search providers to the toolbar search box in Internet Explorer 7 I am about to make an adm etc up for this anyway to set our new IE8/W7 boxes so I will post it later. Also I think you can use the IEAK8 (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/cc889351.aspx) to make a msi that you install after building that sets the options but I dont know about the limitation of the IEAK. On a side point Michael please note you cant really promote pay apps etc on this site without sponsorship, only freebies plz. Last edited by ZeroHour; 24-11-2009 at 05:53 PM.. | |

Rep Power: 67 | I have just completed a fesh install of XP SP3 at home. When it got to the point where it asks about Bing/Google etc I captured the following URL: Add Search Providers to Internet Explorer [Add Search Providers to Internet Explorer] My plan is to try this out tomorrow at work. If it works I intend to include the change in the next round of images [or I might be able to create an MSI based upon the changes?] Either way I will get back and post on any progress. |
